Sahana's ‘Chasin Light' is the song for your mid-scroll existential crisis
Ever found yourself mid-scroll, phone in hand, suddenly wondering, 'Wait... what am I doing here?' If so, Sahana Naresh's upcoming indie single, 'Chasin Light,' might be your sonic soulmate. This lush new track captures the drift and daze of modern life with a moody, melodic grace that's equal parts haunting and healing. 'Chasin Light' isn't just a song — it's a slow-burning anthem for anyone who's ever stared out a rain-drenched window or gotten lost in a loop of overthinking. Sahana's voice floats gently over hypnotic indie-pop production, guiding listeners through emotional fog with a kind of quiet clarity. It's not sad, exactly — more like a sonic GPS recalibration for your soul. Blending vulnerability with groove, the Chennai-bred artist continues her genre-fluid exploration, building on the emotional textures of earlier releases like Vaari Vaari and Only Constant is Change. But 'Chasin Light' feels like a step forward — deeper, more refined, and deeply resonant. Sahana isn't new to the spotlight. She's opened for Emmy-winning comedian Vir Das at his Bangalore shows, and her track Raat Kate was sync-licensed for the Canadian TV series Potluck Ladies. She also performed at the 2022 All About Music conference, further proving her mettle as a rising star in India's indie music scene. So why should 'Chasin Light' land on your playlist? Maybe because: • You've had a main-character moment on public transport • You can't tell if you're chasing purpose or just spinning wheels • You've ever wanted to cry, dance, then cry again Between surf gigs, sync placements, and stage shows, Sahana Naresh is carving a space that's both personal and profound. With 'Chasin Light,' she shines a torch into life's confusing corners — and reminds us that even when we're lost, we're still moving forward.

RTE quota students in Karnataka overcome challenges to excel in boards
1 2 3 Bengaluru: The academic year 2024-25 saw the first batch of Right to Education (RTE) quota students writing their first board exam this year. Struggling under financial constraints to even pay the school fees in the last two years as the fee exemption under RTE exists only up to class 8 and with no extra tuition or coaching, their success stories are heartwarming. Champadevi TR, principal, MES Kishore Kendra Public School, Vidyaranyapura, reflected on an RTE student who secured 96% in the exam. As the family did not want to be identified, Champadevi spoke on her behalf. "We are extremely proud of her achievements. She had no tuition or parental support. She managed it with the help of our teachers," she said.

"The child has been with us since LKG. Being a good performer, she continued after class 8 in the school. The management gave her some fee concession and enough time relaxation to pay it," the principal added. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Detailers Are Stunned by How Well This At-Home Cleaner Works Make Your Car Look Like New Undo For the parents of RTE students, joy knew no bounds on the result day. Kannan R, a painter whose daughter K Sahana secured 90%, said: "I am extremely proud of her. She self-studied and achieved this." Sahana's principal Rama Karthik of Regency School, pointed out how the battles are different for RTE students. "Many students become demoralised when they know that they are from the RTE quota. But Sahana was never disheartened. She was so consistent in her studies that her parents too wanted her to continue in the same school after class 8," she said. Samhitha Krishnamoorthy, a student of Notre Dame School, secured 90%. "When my friends went for tuitions, I sometimes wished I went too. But I just worked extra hard and that made all the difference," she said. Samhitha's mother is an administrator in the school and her father is a farmer. How rules changed When the RTE Act was passed in 2009 and implemented in the state in 2012, 25% of seats in private, non-minority schools were set apart for students from disadvantaged backgrounds. The fees for them were fixed by the state and paid by the govt. However, soon after, the govt realised that the provision was creating a financial burden on the govt, and it tweaked the rules. Under the amended rules, the RTE quota will be available in private schools only if vacant seats are unavailable in neighbourhood govt schools.
